Reading Festival - 2008

The Reading Festivals took place on the weekend of the 22 to 24 August. In 2008, Reading Festival Tickets had been released on March 31 at 6:45pm and sold out within 2 hours. Reading Festival Tickets sold out in just one hour.This was the first year "BBC Introducing..." had a stage at the festival.
The 2008 Reading Festival saw a great number of site changes, including relocation of the wristband exchange to the external gates, the Reading Festival Bridge over the River Thames in order to connect the white campsite to the main area, and numerous security enhancements.
A set of the box office changes resulting in disorderly lines of as many as 50 people or more wide at places and higher demand than previous years due to several festival-goers having purchased tickets from fake websites, meant that people queued for 15 hours or more in some cases.
